OCS 11AUG25 IWC BOARD // Nerd Thunderdome 2025

[OceanBlue]

I hate to spin up the rumor mill again, but I was on the phone with my OR to ask about the prospect of submitting a package for the next board if I'm not recommended for this one. He told me that the 27 October board was cancelled and that the next one would be the January board.

Other than what we've seen so far, can anyone confirm/deny what I've been told?

My OR has also said that there are no open boards until 2026 except if you qualify for I-SEL.

I'm a little bummed as:
12AUG24 IWC had results by 5 September = 24 days
08APR24 IWC had results by 2 May = 24 days
27NOV23 IWC had results by 14 December = 17 days
13FEB23 IWC had results by 17 March = 32 days
07NOV22 IWC had results by 13 January = 67 days (outlier)

Whereas we are at 38 days at the time of this post. We may hear back even in mid-October...

Thanks for calculating that — I was curious what the last few waits had been!

Who wants to start taking bets? I’m going with 53 days.

I'm going to guess the latest will be the first week or middle-of-October. They haven't had any street-applicant IWC boards for a whole year and won't have any until January.

NRC seems to get people to OCS within 6 months of PRO REC Y so have there not been any street Intel applicants at OCS for a year?

If anyone has access to SharePoint/PrideMod please update us clueless civilians.

My current recruiter is retiring and I'm assigned another one. I'm wondering if I should put in a packet for other designators.
